I guess I am like a bunch of Obama voters, who expected change and got the same old shit. I hope I am wrong about the 2010 campaign, but the schedule is a bitch, and we really need an upgrade to do well!!!

Dude, you are just way to negative. There are a thousand ways to spin any action, and you seem like you have found a way to wrap them all in to one giant Turdball.
For the culture to change, which Shanny is trying to, the FO can't be in the desparation mode like you seem to be. They are taking reasonable steps, setting decent limits, and as much as they can, enforcing a disciplined and equal routine on all our players. A 3rd round pick, received at an unfair value, is a far worse move than keeping an overpaid player, who has said he will do whatever the coaches ask. Your desparation reminds me of Vinny last year rushing to the platform for Orakpo. It will be ok, we can take our time, use all our resources, and have a successful draft, and remolding of our Redskins.
As a reminder:
1st= T Williams - Franchise OL (yes I am hedging, but he will be an anchor somewhere on our line for 10 years)
2nd = D McNabb - Franchise QB for the next few years (still I wasn't a fan at all of the move, but McNabb's attitude and actions are swaying me)
3rd = J Jarmon - 1 year in already, very good pick up at the time and still alot of potential
4th = TBD - 3 possible OT's, Matt Tennant C, a solid potential QB or two, all are still available looks like this should be a productive pick
5th = TBD + Carriker (yes the FO actually gained a player without costing us an actual pick, only positioning)
6th = Vinny's fault (and along this line, your incessant call for trades would lead us down this type route) you build picks by not trading up unless absolutely necessary, and you let trades come to you, not vice versa.
7th = TBD possibly used in conjunction to move up a spot or two somewhere in rounds 4 or 5.
I don't think this counts as a shoddy draft.
